Thanks for the response! We are working on a better automatic scoring
bound to the risk system vector calculation of our db. Its all bound and
normally a moderator check the content but after a ddos last week we
missed to checkthe issue again. We are only human and mistakes happen
can ... thanks.

Abstract:
=========
The Vulnerability Laboratory Research Team discovered a script code inject vulnerability in Apples (MacOSx) Widget

Report-Timeline:
================
2012-11-27:   Public Disclosure


Status:
========
Published


Exploitation-Technique:
=======================
Local


Severity:
=========
Low


Details:
========
A persistent script code inject vulnerability is detected in the Dictionnaire, Dictionary of the French language 
based on TLFi (in French), Software. 
The vulnerability allows a local attacker execute malicious codes to compromise the connected client system in the 
lan. The command execution 
vulnerability is located in the search field of the Dictionnaire module. The malicious injected script code will be 
directly executed out of 
the result field. Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in system compromise via script code 
injections, persistent software 
context manipulation, external malware loads or malicious external redirects. 

Vulnerable Software Module(s):
                                      [+] Search Box

Vulnerable Software Parameter(s):
                                      [+] Search Field


Proof of Concept:
=================
The software validation vulnerability can be exploited by local attackers with required user interaction and 
privileged local system account.
